Build specific, but usually no. I have weapons for different enemies. Not usually going to end well if i fight a rapier or bkga with the dgm, so I swap to the large club, but its not secondary, its a fairly even split.

I dont use a backup weapon simply because i dont have any weight left to use one..I would love to use my velka's rapier along with my MLGS though but i cant fastroll anymore if i equip it.I also dont use a shield because of the weight issue .

technically speaking, I always have 9 weapons and 3 shields ready for use!

Ye if i meet a guy with some sick amount of poise and a Huge weapon i sometimes swap some stuff around quickly. But alot of times im fighting 1v2 and dont get a chance to do so .

Also after playing around with the talent calculator a bit i just saw that when my build is complete i could equip a heater shield and still fastroll, gonna make a +15 today quickly before i go to ng+.

Yes,yes I do use a secondary weapon - but I am always situationally mid battle switching my primary also. eg; my FH gets summoned with Scythe and Bastard Sword +15, or WP +15. My RTSr procs or the SLB fades off of the scythe I pull a Demon Spear or something else out of my bp

Thanks. It’s is really useful. Especially if i am facing a bleed weapon, since all of my builds are dragons i have practically no bleed res and i can bleed from ~3 hits. It gives my time to swap to the blood bite ring.

i do with most builds. i have found i really like the winged spear. more so then the sks or dss, dont know why. sometimes its tuff picking between a bow,high crit weapon,or pyro glove/cat/tali ext. i do think that switching weapons too often can be a bad thing.

Virtually every one of my toons uses a backup weapon. I like to chose something with complete opposite strengths as my primary, so I can mix it up a bit. The only reason I won't have a second weapon is weight requirements.
